RUIZ-ESPARZA BARAJAS, Elizabeth; MEDRANO VELA, Cecilia Araceli e KARIM ZEPEDA HUERTA, Jesús Helbert. Exploring University Teacher Perceptions About Out-of-Class Teamwork. profile [online]. 2016, vol.18, n.2, pp.29-45. ISSN 1657-0790. https://doi.org/10.15446/profile.v18n2.53364.
This study reports on the first stage of a larger joint research project undertaken by five universities in Mexico to explore university teachers' thinking about out-of-class teamwork. Data from interviews were analyzed using open and axial coding. Although results suggest a positive perception towards teamwork, the study unveiled important negative opinions. These opinions suggest the lack of success in promoting deep learning and in developing students' socio-cognitive abilities. Findings were used to develop a survey to be applied to more teachers to gain a broader perspective and to corroborate results.
